💼 What the programme involves
The Springhornhof foundation in the Lüneburg Heath is one of the most innovative landscape art projects of Europe. Since the 1970s famous international artists from all over the word have built an artistic landscape with more than 40 installations. In the first week of the camp your group will help with the maintenance of the art installations. During the second week you will build your own art object in cooperation with the two land art artists Llobet & Pons from Barcelona. Their sculptures, objects and installations for indoor and exterior space are located between art, architecture and design. Their procedure is based on exact observation of social coherences, research and dialogue. They use everyday objects such as construction materials, clothes or sport equipment to change or use them in a different way and transform them into new metaphors and meanings.
